Kenai River

First Run (King Salmon) May-June:

The first run of King Salmon begins entering the Kenai River in April and reach catchable numbers by early May. This run peaks around mid June.
While the average size of these fish are slightly smaller than the 2nd run there
are trophy fish in this run as well. The world record King Salmon weighed
97.4 lbs and was caught on the Kenai on May 17, 1985. Although this run is
not as numerous as the 2nd run, low water conditions and fewer anglers often
make this a more enjoyable and quite successful time to fish. The low
water helps concentrate fish into the deeper holes and main channels making them
easier to intercept on their way upstream.

The Kenai River is closed to guided fishing on Sunday's and
Monday's in the months of May, June, and July and has hours of 6
a.m. to 6 p.m. There is also a seasonal bag limit of 2 Kings
and a daily limit of 1. Once an angler retains a King Salmon
they may not fish again the remainder of the day.

Second Run (King Salmon) July:

The 2nd run of Kings begins on July 1. It
draws large crowds of anglers each season. This run has a
considerably larger return than the 1st run, as well as producing a
larger size average. The river can get very crowded at this
time of year, but it makes for an exciting fishery. Anglers
not familiar with this fishery, should fish with a licensed guide or
knowledgeable local. There
is also a very healthy run of sockeye salmon entering the river at this time. This
is our busiest time of the season, so early booking is strongly
recommended.

August and September (Silver Salmon
& Pink Salmon):

Both the Kenai and Kasilof Rivers host a strong run of Silver
Salmon (Coho's). They begin entering the rivers in July and
reach catchable numbers by the end of King season (July 31).
We begin fishing silvers on August 1 and continue through
mid-September. Silvers are a fun, acrobatic fish that can be
caught with a number of methods.

We also get a record run of Pink Salmon(Humpies) on every other
year (even years). Pinks come in the same time as the Silvers
and are very aggressive, making this an excellent time for families
with children. There is no end to the action while Pinks are
in the river. The limit of Silvers is 2 per day, while the
limit of Pinks is 6. The Kenai River is still closed on
Monday's for guided fishing, however, the Kasilof is open 7 days a
week again.
